Romeo & Juliette Laser Hair Removal Frequently Asked Questions

How does the laser work?
Lasers safely remove unwanted facial and body hair by selectively targeting melanin (pigment) inside the hair follicle,
generating energy in the form of heat at the root of the hair, and destroying the hair without damaging the skin.

Is Laser Hair Removal Safe?
Laser hair removal treatments are extremely safe and our professionals are certified laser specialists and New York state licensed aestheticians.

Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?
Most individuals experience no more than a slight stinging sensation as the laser pulses are applied. Some parts of the body do tend to be more
sensitive than others and a topical numbing cream is available.

How Many Laser Hair Removal Sessions Does It Take?
The number of treatments required for long-term benefits depends on the area being treated, your hair density, and the
hair's growth cycle. There are three phases of hair growth — Anagen (active), Catagen (regression) and Telogen
(resting). Laser technology is designed to treat hair in the Anagen phase of growth. Additional factors, including
age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication and metabolism, influence hair growth and play a role in the
location, thickness and resilience of your hair. Although each client is unique, experience tells us that you can
expect an average of 4-8 treatments spaced 6 to 12 weeks apart, depending on the body location of the unwanted hair.

How Long is the Laser Hair Removal Treatment Session?
The length of an individual laser hair removal treatment is determined by the density of hair growth and overall size
of the area to be treated. Small areas may take as little as 15 minutes, while larger areas, such as the back and leg,
may require up to an hour or longer.

How Much Does It Cost?
Compared to a lifetime of waxing, shaving or purchasing depilatory creams, laser hair removal is very affordable. Price
is based on the size of the area to be treated.
